__BITS_PER_U128 is being used anymore, will drop it.

We had _U128() in the previous version V1 but as Arnd explained earlier
gcc silently truncates the constant passed into that helper. So _U128()
cannot take a real large 128 bit constant as the input.

AFAICS unsigned __int128 based constants can only be formed via shifting
and merging operations involving two distinct user provided 64 bit parts.
Probably something like the following

#define _AC128(h, l)	(((unsigned __int128)h << 64) | (unsigned __int128)l)
#define _U128(h, l)	(_AC128(h, l))

But then carving out h and l components for the required 128 bit constant
needs to be done manually and for assembly the shifting operations has to
be platform specific. Hence just wondering if it is worth adding the macro
_U128().
